Why Do You Seek the Living Among the Dead?

Now on the first day of the week, very early in the morning, they, and certain other women with them, came to the tomb bringing the spices which they had prepared. But they found the stone rolled away from the tomb. Then they went in and did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. And it happened, as they were greatly perplexed about this, that behold, two men stood by them in shining garments. Then, as they were afraid and bowed their faces to the earth, they said to them, “Why do you seek the living among the dead? “He is not here, but is risen! Remember how He spoke to you when He was still in Galilee, “saying, ‘The Son of Man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again.’ ” And they remembered His words. Luke 22 1:8
What has God told you?
What is it that God has spoken into your life?
Have you forgotten it in the midst of a Friday in which everything has been turned upside down and a Saturday which can’t get any longer?
I’m here this Easter Sunday morning to tell you that that thing that God has spoken will come to pass in your life.
On the Sunday morning when you go to check out the dead things, hoping that what has happened hasn’t really happened, that you can turn back time, you will hear,
“why do you seek the living among the dead?”
That thing is not dead;
it went through the process it had to go through, in order to bring life!
It is risen!
Question for Discussion
What process are you in that needs some raising? Sunday is coming!
